The Miami University men’s basketball team (7-15, 1-8 Mid-American Conference) hosts Bowling Green University (13-9, 4-5 MAC) Saturday afternoon.
Senior guard Eric Washington was sidelined in Miami’s 94-69 loss to Eastern Michigan University on Tuesday due to violation of team policy. Before that, he missed two games with a lower body injury.
Head coach John Cooper has looked to other teammates like senior guard Geovonie McKnight and guard Dion Wade to fill Washington’s void.
“Dion is coachable in that. I’m on Dion,” Cooper said. “Trying to get him to always stay locked in and focused and from a mental standpoint of what’s going on in the game.
